youre my hero man.

i think a supercharged 4.2 is a much better car than the 5.2
i bet it'll run circles around a 5.2 because of the weight savings
more grunt, better brakes, wider tires.... youre golden

congrats again man !

now please find some ferrari **** and show them the difference between a fast car and an R8

 

Any plans to offer a similar kit for the RS4?

 

I think that price is a lil out there for the gains imo. Looks good tho.

 

I agree. Great product and obviously some R&D but $25K is a bit stiff.
Will this apply to the RS4?

Ben congrats brother. You are going to be very happy!
btw long time Ben. I need to stop by next week and show you my new acquisition.

i like the attention to cooling, the 3 exchangers and what looks like heatsinked piping.

 

The price at $25k might be higher relative to more "tunable" cars, but I gotta believe that there will be a healthy demand for it from current V8 R8 owners that want more power and are considering the V10. Price is still not crystal clear on the V10, while taking a hit on the trade-in of a V8...vs. keeping the V8 and getting a car that is faster than the V10 for less money than doing the trade. That's my twisted logic.

 

Good logic.
Will this SC'er apply to the RS4? Could broaden the base for units to sell.
I had an RS4 and my complaint was that it needed more power.

That is a lot of power Roman! I will get my finger ready for the point on PRI!

I thought this kit would cost around $15k max??

 

25k makes no sense for an aftermarket supercharger.

Great product, best of luck with it, but that is just charging because it is an R8 and there really is not any competition right now.

VF will have a solution for the RS4 and R8 that should be more in line with realistic pricing.

 

nice!

 

Wow, someone from PES did not like my comment:

"Wrong! VF's Products are a lot less involved and don't produce the numbers that they claim they do."

If you guys have the ***** to charge 25k for this, at least have the ***** to not hide behind anonymous negative rep comments.

VF products tend to overachieve. How are VF products less involved? You mean they involve less of your money?

 

should arrive tomorrow. .i know youll be around

 

Curio im wont wont say one is better than the other but being an R8 owner and only having mtm blower available for 45k pes were the only guys with the ***** to take this project head on and make it work . i have been waiting for vf blower 4 months before i even meet the pes guys and they made a kit which is works in 4 months.. again price is up to the owenr but in this market they are the only one's with a working blower for an R8 for alot less than the alternative mtm for 45k . i talk to VF when they anounced their kit early in the year and its july and still nothing so untill then this is everyones R8 power soultion or unless you go TT and spend alot more .. to each their own ... for me and 5 other guys i know pes works !
